    <description>Based out of Philadelphia, PA, Man Man is an experimental indie band that incorporates Eastern European and circus-esque styles in their music, creating a unique sound. The band consists of Honus Honus (lead vocals, piano, organ, persussion), Pow Pow (drums and other various percussions), Cougar (trumpet, guitar, percussion), Sergei Sogay (bass, synths, percussion), and Chang Wang(sax, percussion).&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Their style has been compared to a mixture of Tom Waits, Frank Zappa, and Captain Beefheart. Man Man is known for their distinctive live shows where the members of the band dress in white tennis outfits and don war paint. During their sets the band does not take breaks between songs in order to keep a constant energy level.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Man Man has released two LPs with Ace Fu Records: &lt;em&gt;The Man in the Blue Turban With A Face&lt;/em&gt; (2004) and &lt;em&gt;Six Demon Bag&lt;/em&gt; (2006).  In November 2007 they signed with the Anti-Label to release a new CD/LP/Solar Flare in 2008.</description>

  <comment>Man Man's less sloppy but just as ramshackle, as if the snaps and crackles are the band's diversion from actually writing the record. As a song and title, the breakneck &quot;Young Einstein on the Beach&quot; might be more self-referential than the band intended.&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/record_review/20222-six-demon-bag&quot;&gt;more at pitchforkmedia.com&lt;/a&gt;</comment>
